Select the categories of clutter that you find most difficult to work on. (Since we discovered the technical issue preventing some users from answering the previous question, we’re also offering this simpler format.)
  • Family heirlooms or other inherited items
  • Financial paperwork
  • Personal papers (letters, cards, etc.)
  • Photographs (printed or digital)
  • Reading material (books, magazines, etc.)
If the category of stuff you find most difficult to work with wasn’t included in the list for the previous question, please describe it here.I’m also helping my mom her paperwork so juggling her mail and keeping up with my own paperwork. I feel like I’m doing double time.
For the category of stuff you find hardest to declutter or organize, please tell us about how or why this type of stuff trips you up.Working on my mom’s stuff makes her happy but sometimes I rather just send time visiting and talking
What’s your favorite thing to listen to while decluttering?The clutter fairy podcast- I feel like I’m working with great co-workers
Name one or more of your favorite Clutter Fairy-isms (e.g., “thin the herd”) or decluttering and organizing mnemonic devices (e.g., OHIO—Only Handle It Once).“Speed cleaning” another form of aerobic exercise
Here’s your chance to ask Gayle and Ed any question you’re curious about. It need not be related to this survey’s topic(s).I’m dealing with a lot things, the residue from clearing out several relatives houses and “filtering” ( another term) their things out of my house and garage - it’s starting to be annoying- it’s starting to take a toll but it just needs to get done. So I guess my question is about clutter fatigue either passed away or still helping family while they’ve moved onto new living situations
Future topics

Setting routines
Rethinking spaces for other uses
Decluttering spaces for other spaces-Thinking of my kids who have a pantry and closet could be de cluttered and using them for other purposes.
